Panrs, April 4.—The ministry have asked the chamber of deputies to sanction the prosecution of Gen. Boulanger. In making the request the government sub- mitted a statement to the chamber, in which it reviews the career of Gen. Boulanger since the commune, and charges him with attempting the destruction of the republic. It declares that his offense comes under the sections of the | penal code dealing with ee and attempts to overthrow the established government, THE EFFECT OF BOULANGER'S FLIGHT. Panis, April 4.—The opportunist and radical journals declare that Boulangism ended with the flight of Gen. Boulanger, but that the prosecution of the general must continue. The Journal des Debats says: ‘Since madness and folly, which would have ruined anybody else, made Gen. Boulanger’s fortune, it is impossible to predict that his recent weak pro- ceeding will ruin or diminish his prestige.” Lhe Boulangists and members of the right denounced M. Meline, the president of the chamber, for reading the government's state- ment relative to Boulanger, and called upon the minister of justice to read his own work, pce iboats SUICIDE OF A CLERGYMAN. Rev. Charles Sidney Hurd, of Boston, Kills Himself in London, Loxpox, April 4.—The Rey, Charles Sidney Hurd ,lately of the Palmerston Unitarian chapel, Boston, committed suicide by taking opium in the Euston hotel, London, on Sunday last. ¢ week Mr. Hurd wrote to the Rev. Stafford Brooke, asking pecuniary assistance. Mr. Brooke made inquiries. and ‘promised to pay Mr. Hurd’s passage to Boston on Monday, although Mr. Hurd was a stranger to him. At the inquest on the body to-day a letter dated Saturday from Mr. Hurd to Mr. Brooke was read. In this the unfortunate man thanks Mr. Brooke for his kindness, and apologizes for having troubled him, ‘The _ letter concludes: “The sole way by which I can escape my_ difficulties is through gates of death.

Pitrsevra, April 4.—Edward Dietz. a laborer, who resided with his wife and family on Craig street, below Center avenue, killed one of his children, a girl three years of age. and then cut his own throat. The deed was the outcome of a quarrel between Dietz and his wife which was afraid to return home, and this morning with two officers went to the house and found the dvors barricaded. They were broken open, and upon going upstairs a horrible sight met their gaze. Lying ou one bed was the little child with her throat cut from ear to ear, and on another bed was Dietz with a gaping wound in his throat and a razor tightly clutched in his hand. Both were dead. The crime had evi- dently been committed early in _ the night, as the bodies were cold. Mrs. Dietz was so terribly shocked at the horrible affair that she is quite ill. Th murderer and suicide was about forty-tiv of age. He was a German, and was the father of several children, who, fortunately, were not at home, or they might have shared the same fate as their little sister. AN EPIDEMIC OF SUICIDE.

President Harrison’s Visitors To-Day Include but Few on “Business.”” ROBERT L. LINCOLN ACCEPTS HIS APPOINTMENT— ANDREW GLEESON AND PERRY CARSON CALL— TWO CANDIDATES FOR RECORDER OF DEEDS IN THE DISTRICT—LOUISIANA REPUBLICANS, The morning at the White House, so far as the President was concerned, was rather social than businesslike, an extraordinarily large pro- portion of the callers having no other object in view than the payment of their respects—an obligation they seem to be ina hurry to assume and dispose of. One of the first to disturb the peace of the White House to-day was Andy Gleeson, who called to make ar- rangements for a formal reception of him- self and Perry Carson. He was told to return at about 12 o'clock, and then every- thing would be ready. The Attorney-General saw the President early, and so did Senator Hiscock and a party ‘of friends, Senator Spooner was another visitor who had friends to introduce, and when their hands had been duly shaken they retired to make room for Senator Wolcott, who wanted to talk of ex- Senator Chilcott and the general land office. He made an eloquent appeal to the President to recognize Colorado in this matter, but de- parted without a surances, Representative Batterworth brought with him Mr. Lewis Seasongood and Miss Season- good, of Cincinnati, who desired to say “ho dy-do” to the chief executive. Representative Brower also had company. Representative Coleman acted as conductor to a few Louisian- ians—Commander Jacob and Major Eaton, of the New Orleans G. A. R.; Capt. J. B. Don- nelly, a prominent cotton-pianter of East Car- roll parish, and Col. E. I. Kursheedt, the new United States marshal for the eastern district of Louisiana, Gen, James A. Ekin introduced Dr. John 8. Cooper, M.D., and Rey, W. W. Barr, D.D., and D, W. Collins, D, D., the two iatter being the editors of -The Christian Instructor of Philadel- hia, aud representatives of the board of oreign missions of the United Presbyterian church. These were but a portion of an epidemic of doctors, for amoug otters were Dr, Kobert Reyburn, of this eity; Dr. W. H. Harri- son, of Baton Ronge, La., and Dr. Collins, of Charleston, S. C. ROBERT T. 1 ‘OLN ACCEPTS HIS APPOINTMENT, One of the visitors whom the President was glad to see came in with Senator Cullom. He was a fine-looking, healthy specimen of man- | hood, well dressed and apparently well fed. It was Robert T. Lincoln, iis interview with the man who had, without giving warning of his | intention, made him minister to England, was } | really affectionate. The son of the great Presi- | dent thanked Mr, Harrison for the distinction conferred upon him and accepted the appoint- | ment, Mr. Lincoln came out of the library with a smiling countenance and he greeted a number of the old employes of the White House with {considerable warmth. Just as he left the | building which he kuows so well, THE DISTRICT COMMISSIONERSHIPS, A delegation of considerable importance, | which slipped quietly into the White House to- day, was the sub-committee of the Com- | mittee of One Hundred, consisting of Dr. | Reyburn, J. L. French, M. L Weller, and |Dr. Allen, Their visit to the President | was for the purpose of expressing the dis- satisfaction of the citizens’ committee with the | present incumbents in the oflices of District Commissioners. The President received the | visitors with great court and listened to | them individually, the interview lasting nearly half an hour. The committee, after ex- pressing themselves against the retention any longer of the present Commissioners, urged the President to select as their successors up- right and competent citizens who would be an honor to the city and to hin The President replied that he would do | everything in his power to get the best men | possible. When the delegation emerged the great satisfaction at their reception was | expressed in every feature of their joyful conn- tenances, The clined to divulge the result of their visit. ept in a general way to ex- press themselves as entirely satisfied with their reception, A DISTRICT DELEGATION, Perry Carson and Andy Gleeson, came in, and, following Senator Blair up the stairs, were ush- ered into the cabinet room and from thence progressed into the libri They called sim- ply “tw pay their respects,” but they did not aliow the President to forget’ that at least two District Commissioners had to be appointed shortly, nor did they lose sight of the fact that they were and are ardent support- ers of Joseph for the republican va- cancy on the board, The President said he was foing to appoiut zood men to the District oftices, put made no promises, ‘Then thealelegation came out and thanked Senator Blair for having introduced it. A COLORED VIRGINIA EDITOR RECOMMENDED FOR RECORDER OF DEEDS, Senator Spooner retarned shortly before noon and hada little business chat with Secretary Halford while the President was being talked to by a colored dele inia, the members of which were extremely anxious to have Joln Mitchell, jr., appointed recorder of deeds for the Districtof Columbia, Mr. Mitch- ell is the editor of the Richinond (Va.), Planet, The delegation which was introduced to the President by George R. Barues, of Richmond, consisted of Senator Daniel M. Norton, of York; A. J. Gray, D. M. Batts and J. M. of Petersburg; J. H. Smith, of King John W. Crawford, of Lynchburg; M. F. John- son and H. F. Jonathan, of Henrico; J, Wesley Jones, Albert T. Ellis, R. E. Richardson and J. L. Griffin, of Richmond. The latter was spokes- man, and in respose to his remarks the Presi- dent said thatif he appointed anyone nota resident of the District to that office he would consider Mr, Mitchell's qualitications, “APPLICANT FOR THE GOVERNOMSHIP OF ALASKA.’ Walter Howard, a merchant who does busi- ness in the far-away region of Alaska, talked to the President about the ideal administration he could give Alaska if he was only appointed gov- Mr. Howard is not ashamed of the fact for ou the face of his card tten “Applicant for the governorship of OTHER CALLERS, Following him came Samuel D. Lee, the managing editor of the Rochester (N. ¥.) Morn- ing Herald, accompani by Harry L. West, city editor of the Washington Post. Others who called about that time were Justice Wm. Strong, Gen.

Mr. Jellison wants to be a consul, and was referred to the State department. The President stopped receiving at 1 o'clock, but the rule was fractured to admit Patrick Egan, the new minister to Chili, who hada long talk with the man who appointed him, Chief Clerk Brackett, of the Treasury de- partment, also saw the President, after having ours for ten minutes with Secretary Hal- for: | and suggest that au FOR RECORDER OF DEEDS, ‘The latest petition in behalf of H.

Cole, Willum T.S, Curtis, L. M. Saunders, R. G, Rutherford and Benj. P. Davis. LOUISIANA REPUBLICANS A TRIPLE INDIGNANT. State Senators Cage, Guichard and Simms, and Representatives Rochom, Mahoney and Brown, ali of Louisiana, are a trite indignant | over the publication of their names in con- nection with an aggregation of suggestions which was presented to the President yes- terday by ex-Gov. Pinchback and ~ an accompanying delegation. Senator Cage and his associates are members of a committee appointed by the republicans of the Louisiana legislature to request the President to aid in the protection of rice and sugar; in the contin- uation of the Mississippi river commission; in the establishgent of a navy-yard on the Mis- slssippi river, aud in the fostering of the pub- lic school system as contemplated in the Blair bill. The “concluding plea was for the appointment to federal office of men who were uuquestioned republicans and of unimpeachable integrity and good moral char- acter—men who have the respect and confidence of their neighbors and who have a local inter- est in the offices, The course murked will, they say} “be the means of proving to our democratic opponents that which we have, un- der ES difficulties and by many EE sacrifices, always contended, namely: it the republican party is the party of progress.” EX-GOVERNOR PINCHBACK’S DELEGATION Presented a paper which was full or reasons of race prejudice. There have been some exense for this unjust ition. when th€ race was first enfranchised, but there cen be none now. A quarter of a cen- tury of freedom has enabled the race to secure men of sufficient intelligence, expe- rience, and capacity to discharge the duties of citizenship in any position to which they may be called, Our advancement in all the essential elements of civilization since our emancipation and enfranchisement is admitted on all sides to have been remarkable, and we are persuaded to believe that as great as it has been, it would have been still greater but for the unfortunate disaster of the Freedman’s bank failare, and the inadequacy of the means for the education of our people through the failure of this bank. We solicit your influence in favor of the proper legislation to reimburse the depositors in said bank.” THE CONSULATE AT HONG KONG. © Because Col. Perry 8.

The Commissioners Asked to Investi- gate Charges Against the Management. THE ENGINEER M’GUIGAN THINKS HE CAN PROVE SOME SERIOUS STATEMENTS—ALLEGED BAD FOOD AND BAD PRACTICES—STORES SAID TO HAVE BEEN SENT AWAY—THE MATRON’S HABITS, Charges were made to-day against the man- agement of the Washington asylum, which may lead to a thorough investigation of that institu | tion, Rumors have been circulated often re- specting the treatment of the inmates of the poor-house and the conduct of officers, but they have not taken the shape of definite charges. The person who comes forward now to acense the management is Mr. John J, McGuigan, who for several years has held the post of chief engineer at the insti- tution, and residing in the grounds has had opportunities for observing the conduct of officials and various matters pertaining to the management. such as a visitor from the out- side world could not obtain. Mr. McGuigan last Monday received notice of his removal from office, to take effect imme- diately. He stated to a Star reporter that he believed the real canse of the sudden action by the authorities was the fact of his having talked with a reporter respecting the management of the institution. MR. M'GUIGA: LETTER, The charges made by Mr. MeGuigan are con- tained ina letter dated, which he handed to the Commissioners to-day, and the full text of which is as follows: Gentlemen: 1 received yesterday a notice of my peremptory removal from the office of chief cngincer of the Washington asylum, As Lere was no indication in the letter addressed me by the secretary of the Commissioners of the cause for the removal, and as I am in- formed that the Commissioners were in- duced to this action by _—_state- ments made to them respecting my conduct, Task gs matter of justice that the Commis- end the’ operation of their order been given opportunity to meet any charge or uation made against me, At the same time I desire to cull the atten- tion of the Commissioners to certain matters investigation of the whole management of the Washington asylum would result to the benefit of the unfortunate inmates of that institution, if not to actual saving to the Dis- trict. On several occasions, when I had de- termined to file charges with the Commission- ers, Ihave been dissuaded from my purpose, and yielded, in the hope that a better admin- istration might be s d without a public seandal. The cirew of my sudden re- moval lead me to the conclusion that it is the result of an effort to prevent a proper investi- gation of the management of the asylum by discrediting the statements and charges I am prepared to make, I believe a thorough investigation of the in- stitution will show: First—That old material belonging to the District is sold and no account rendered of the money received. Second—That the matron of the institution is notoriously addicted to drink, and negligent of duty, having on many occasions appeared in the poor-house in a state of intoxication: ‘Yhird—That the inmates of the poor-house are neglected and the wards they occupy al- lowed to become filthy by reason of the inat- tention of the intendant and the matron. Fourth—That women confined in the female workhouse have been cruelly and brutally treated by a male keeper, with the knowledge of the intendant. Fifth—That the food furnished to the in- mates of the work-house and the poor-honse and tothe patients in the hospital, is often of unwholesome character and scenty in quan- tity, while the best of the products of the farm and the dairy and the choicest supplies pur- chased-for the institution are appropriated to the use of the intendant and of favored officers. Sixth—That materials belonging to the insti- tution have been sent away to relatives of or persons favored by the intendant and matron. These statements I believe will be sustained by the testimony of inmates of the poor-house and persons who have been employed at the institution during the last four years. I will be pleased to furnish the Commissioners with a list of the names of witnesses, Respectfully, &c., Joun J. McGuiaan, —_>—— An Expensive Game of “Seven Up.” A CHARGE OF VIOLATION OF THE GAMBLING LAWS DISMISSED IN THE POLICE COURT. This afternoon in the Police Court Prosecut- ing Attorney Armes called Judge Miller's at- tention to a charge of violating the gambling law against Timothy Reagan. Messrs. Du- hamel and Browning appeared for the defend- ant, who is the proprietor of @ saloon at 11th and Water streets, near the oyster wharf, known as “the Pigeon-Hole.” Mr. Duhamel moved to quash the informa- tion on the grounds that the information against the defendant did not sufficiently set out the offense charged. He did not know what hisclient was charged with except from reading the magistrate’ warrant which was issued by Justice Strider, Counsel then read the warrant as follows: A CUBIOUS WARRANT. “Whereas William Turner hath upon oath before me, a justice of the peace in and for the District of Columbia, declared that on the 23d day of March, 1889, in the District aforesaid, Timothy Reagan did keep and exhibit a certain gaming table called ‘se@n-up. Counsel also read the information filed by the prosecuting attorney. ‘The court overruled the demurrer, and coun- sel entered a plea of not guilty, STORY OF THE PROBECUTING WITNESS. The prosecuting witness testified that on the evening charged he went in the defendant's place and the latter & game of “seven-up” for beer.

The case of Everett Hubbard, the member of the Governor's Guards, of Annapolis, who Was arrested on inauguration day on # charge of shooting Champ Evans, colored, in the “Di- vision,” as published in Tae Stan at the time, was called for trial in the Police Court this af- ternoow. Mr. Carrington pleaded not guilty for the defendant. Champ Evans described how the trouble started and told in What a murderous manner a soldier fired a shot irom a revolver leveled at his heart. He said that he was badly fright- ned at the time and he could not identify him. Six colored men were called as witnesses by the prosecution, They allswore that they saw the shot fired. “Who fired the shot?” each was asked. I don’t know,” was the response each time, “He was a soldier,” they added. “There's some mistake about this man’s being shot,” remarked the judge sarcastically, “the man was pot shot at all, It's all a myth.” The judge thought it was a curious thing that the defendant bad ever been arrested. “It is a remarkable condition of affairs,” said the judge. “This is the first time I have ever Been Keven eye-witbesses to a transaction and none of them able to identify the man.” Mir. Carrington said that the shooting might have been a myth, bnt it was a fact t the defendant was locked up in jail for ten days. Aj that time, he said, $5,000 bail was refused. e said that the injured man would recover, He is here to-day as well and strong as either the prosecuting ofticer or himself.

Mr. Armes asked for further continuance as he might be able to get more witnesses. The matter was fully discussed on both sides, and Mr. Armes discovered that be had another witness. The judge thought that he would be like the other witnesses, The witness came forward, told the court that he did not exactly see the shooting and added that he shook hands with the defendant because People said that he had shot Champ Evans, The judge informed the witness that he would not believe him under oath.
